  • When I was younger I was told Don’t want too much. Don’t be too bold. “Little girl, the sun does not rise and set around you.” ⠀⠀ But I stood at the center of an open field. I danced under the stars. I watched the sun rise over the mountain —over me on the mountain— and I heard my soul whisper, “Like hell, it doesn’t.” ⠀⠀ You are the center of your universe. You are the creative conduit between the Earth below and the Cosmos above. Your heart is the eternal crossroads where right and left merge—where all directions converge into one all-pervasive LOVE. ⠀⠀ Your words, deeds, and reasons turn the tides and shift the seasons. You are poetry in motion. A single drop and the whole ocean. ⠀⠀ You’re the Soul Artist and the Witness. ⠀⠀ And beautiful poet—yes, little girl, I am talking to you— ⠀⠀ Your stance is... Your dance is... Your gaze is... EVERYTHING. 📷@angiebarnesphotography

  • MJ and I have been together for fifteen years, nine months, a few weeks, and some odd days. Most of that time has been pretty easy, but there have been moments (or months) that were down right HARD! ⠀⠀ We have struggled to communicate, failed to see each other's point of view, and generally lost our way. ⠀⠀ Through fits and starts, we have made it to the sweetest, juiciest, most connected time of our Love...so far. ⠀⠀ If you are trying to find Love but your wheel is spinning, get yourself back to your center. That's where the Love originates. ⠀⠀ ​Breathe, meditate, practice you...then ask your lover three questions. They will completely transform your relationship for the (oh so much!) better... ⠀⠀ More in my Soul Artist Journal at www.rrshakti.love ⠀⠀ #soulartist #yogaofconnection #LOVE #3questions #marriage #sacredunion #reallifetantra

After the festival. Every day. Especially when it’s difficult. ...when you’re triggered, challenged, hurt... ⠀⠀ As you pass by the stranger on the street, let your eyes be a reflection.

Let your heart make it known: YOU ARE LOVE. ⠀⠀ Because you never know who needs to be shown. ...even Love Warriors need reminders. ⠀⠀ #youarelove #lovewarriors #arisefestival #livelove ⠀⠀ 📷@seanfboggs

It distinguishes “us” from “them.” ⠀⠀ “love” isn’t bad. It’s just incomplete. It’s misunderstood; mistaken for “LOVE.” ⠀⠀ “LOVE” is without condition...without opposite...without end. “LOVE” is the endless wellspring of “divine light power” that beats your heart, courses through your veins and breathes you into consciousness. It is not something you find outside...in an “other.” Anything that looks like “other” is simply LOVE forgotten. ⠀⠀ “LOVE” reminds you that there is no “other.” LOVE is all there is. ⠀⠀ LOVE is what you are. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ #love

  • At this time of year, the United States of America celebrates its sovereignty as a country independent from other world entities. But how independent are we really? ⠀⠀ The truth of our interdependence has become more and more apparent...and important. ​We must acknowledge our reliance upon each other for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Countries depend on both global and inter-personal connection for economic stability, ecological hope, and the general maintenance of world peace. ⠀⠀ Humanity is interconnected with Nature. We rely on her resources for our survival. Inversely, the survival of Earth’s resources depends upon the wise choices of humanity. Each person’s identity and experience is deeply intertwined with the people that surround her and the entire world at large. ⠀⠀ This month, in the Eleven Moons Online God/dess Odyssey, we celebrate the moon as a vision of interconnectedness. Lunar forces influence the rhythm of the tides. Similarly, we are intimately affected by the energies around us. Just as we cannot see the moon except for the sun’s light shining upon it, our lives are each a reflection of the one, Infinite Source. ⠀⠀ Every encounter is an opportunity to reflect that divine light to one another, reminding each other of our true nature as Love. We need each “other.” ​ #interdependence #elevenmoons #soulartist

  • ”We don’t just need a progressive politics or a conservative politics; we need a more deeply human politics. We need a politics of love. Love is the angel of our better nature, just as fear is the demon of the lower self. And it is love, not fear, that has made us great. When politics is used for loveless purposes, love and love alone can override it. It was love that abolished slavery, it was love that gave women suffrage, it was love that established civil rights, and it is love that we need now.” ⠀⠀ - Marianne Williamson A Politics of Love.

  • The question is: HOW WILL YOU RESPOND? ⠀⠀ When “the other side” attacks your values, your sense of security—in fact the very ground of your stability, how will you respond? ⠀⠀ Will you respond with divisiveness, judgement, and condemnation? Will you perpetuate the anger, the alienation—the hateful words and actions that you claim to oppose? ⠀⠀ Fearful people say fearsome things. Scared people do scary things. ⠀⠀ Anyone can retweet that nasty and divisive post coming down the line. But it takes courage, compassion, and creative clarity to stand strong in Love.

    The question is: HOW WILL YOU RESPOND? ⠀⠀ When “the other side” attacks your values, your sense of security—in fact the very ground of your stability, how will you respond? ⠀⠀ Will you respond with divisiveness, judgement, and condemnation? Will you perpetuate the anger, the alienation—the hateful words and actions that you claim to oppose? ⠀⠀ Fearful people say fearsome things. Scared people do scary things. ⠀⠀ Anyone can retweet that nasty and divisive post coming down the line. But it takes courage, compassion, and creative clarity to stand strong in Love.
